Thematik

The objective of this course is to evaluate the ensuing results of conventional techniques employed in electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy on a range of samples. In addition to sharing numerous similarities with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, EPR spectroscopy focuses on the properties of electron spin resonance. This technique provides data pertaining to the molecular structure and dynamics of diverse biological systems.

The investigation of paramagnetic materials, like free radicals, metals, and special spin-labels help to describe biological systems, e.g. membranes, proteins.
